1970 Plymouth Road Runner 440 6 Pack. This is an original V code 440 6 Pack car. The car has the correct 440 6 pack in it but Im not sure how to tell if it is the original block or not so please assume it is a replacement block because after looking at a lot of these for sale it looks like most of them are replacement blocks. The car has an older restoration on it and it looks to be in excellent condition I would call it a #2 quality car. The paint is in excellent condition it is shiny and smooth and the only marking I saw was one small chip on the drivers rocker below the door. This has the original color it came from the factory with and that is yellow with a black vinyl top and the vinyl top is in excellent condition with no damage and it looks like it is newer. I took the car out for a drive and it runs and goes down the road very nicely. It looks like the tires are fairly new Goodyear polyglas tires and the spare tire has never been used and it matches the other four. The previous owner put on some extra cooling fans behind the radiator because he lived in Texas and it gets really hot in the summer and he wanted extra cooling and they can be removed if you like to make it back to concours correct. The interior of the car looks to be all original. The front seats are in excellent condition and the dash has no cracks and is in excellent condition. The original steering wheel has a crack in it and so does the road runner emblem in the center of the steering wheel. The back seat has a few spots where the threads have come apart. The carpet is in excellent condition and it has new matching floor mats which look very nice. The door panels are very nice but they could use new interior door handles or the original ones rechromed because they have minor pitting in them. For an original interior the car looks extremely nice. The trunk is in excellent condition with a new Goodyear polyglas tire in the trunk with no signs of any issues in the trunk area it is clean and looks to be in excellent condition. The underside of the car looks to have the original undercoating on it. It has new exhaust, gas tank and the rear axel looks like it was also reconditioned when it was restored and it has markings on it and an axel tag. The engine compartment is in excellent condition. It has the correct air cleaner and most of the concours correct original 440 6 pack parts under the hood. If there are any items you would like for me to look at under the hood please let me know I am happy to look at them for you. The mileage I would say is not correct and I have no way to verify it one way or another. There is a trim tag that was in the glove box that says special handling car and I don't know what that means but I took a picture of it. So to sum everything up this is an older restoration that is in excellent #2 quality of an original 440 6 pack car that comes in its original yellow exterior with a black vinyl top. The interior is a very nice original interior. I don't have a lift but I am happy to take pictures of anything you like or look the car over and give you any numbers that I can find. I will be a the Barrett-Jackson car auction most of this coming week and if you are going to be over there I can drive the car over to show it to you. Or I live about a 1/2 hour away and I can bring you over to look at the car at my house. I would consider a partial trade on the car but you would have to pay to have your trade in sent to Phoenix and also pay to have this car brought over to you. I can be reached on my cell phone at 612-275-8722. Thanks Kevin Manley. |

US Marshal's classic muscle car auction officially in the books
Thu, 25 Sep 2014The US Marshal's so-called Blood Muscle Auction was completed earlier this month, with the prestigious nine-car field (two cars were added following Autoblog's initial story, a 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS 454 and a rare, mid-restoration 1971 Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda) finding new and hopefully law-abiding owners.
While we'd normally recap the stars of the show, in this particular auction, every car's sale was newsworthy. The full list of sale prices doesn't seem to be published, but according to The New York Times, the auction brought in a total of $2.5 million, or an average of about $277,000 per car.
The king of the contest seems to be a 1970 Plymouth Superbird (above, right), complete with a 426-cubic-inch Hemi V8, which brought home $575,000. The trio of Yenko Chevys, meanwhile, all easily cleared the six-figure mark, with the Yenko Camaro (above, far right) clearing $315,000, the Chevelle crossing the block for $237,500 and the supremely rare - one of just 37 - Yenko Nova (shown above, left) selling for an even $400,000.
'Blood Muscle' auction to sell impressive collection of ill-begotten classic cars
Wed, 30 Jul 2014The old saying goes that if you can't do the time, don't do the crime. But being a criminal can involve more than just taking a trip to the big house; it can also mean losing possessions purchased from any ill-gotten gains. Still, one man's loss is another's gain, and if you're in Lodi, NJ, on September 12, you stand the chance to buy some of the ultimate muscle cars from the US Marshals in what is being gruesomely nicknamed the Blood Muscle auction.
The grisly moniker was earned because all of the vehicles belonged to the president of a blood testing company who is facing prison time for alleged bribery, according to Hemmings. After all, they are muscle cars bought with actual blood money. The seven-vehicle collection includes some of the ultimate muscle cars ever made, and the original buyer clearly had an eye for rarity.
This cornucopia of V8 power includes a teal 1970 Ford Mustang Boss 429, a 1967 Shelby GT500 Mustang, an orange 1970 Plymouth Superbird, a 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS convertible and perhaps most prized of all - a trio of 1969 Yenko Chevys with a Chevelle, Nova and Camaro all represented. From the included photos, all of them look to be in fantastic condition.
SRT belatedly claims Plymouth Prowler as one of its own
Wed, 19 Dec 2012Before Chrysler had Street and Racing Technology, it had Performance Vehicle Operations. What the two entities have in common, before SRT became its own brand, of course, is that each was created to take Chrysler and Dodge (and Plymouth, before it was unceremoniously killed off) vehicles to the next level of style and performance.
We'll leave the question of whether or not the old Plymouth (and later Chrysler) Prowler was ultimately a stylish, performance-oriented car to you, but the boys and girls currently leading the SRT charge at the Pentastar headquarters are keen to accept the retro-rod into the fold.
According to the automaker, all of SRT's current high-performance models owe a debt of gratitude to the old Prowler, due mostly to that car's use of lightweight bits and pieces and innovative construction techniques. If nothing else, the fact that the Prowler's frame is "the largest machined automotive part in history" is pretty cool. Read all the details here.
